“Inspiring and Motivating”

Though I had studied English for several years, I wasn’t confident enough about speaking English. If anyone has same problem as me, I recommend you study with Susan.

Susan has taught foreign students from a variety of backgrounds for years. Therefore, she knows common mistakes foreigners make when using English. In other words, she is aware of the way to improve accuracy in English. What I like the most during the classes with her is that she knows what I mean whenever I speak broken English and corrects the errors immediately.

Besides, I’ve been inspired and motivated by her having always finding an efficient way to teach. She has taught me using materials she has created which were chosen based on my level, and that is very helpful.

AS AN EDITOR…

“Invaluable Editor”

When Susan de la Verge edited the first draft of my novel, I got much more than her meticulous review of grammar, punctuation and spelling. Susan provided essential input on characterization and voice; mercilessly weeded out cliches and anachronisms; and offered insightful suggestions on structure and depth of description. She was both prompt and thorough with her review. Her contribution was invaluable.

“Quick and Efficient”

Susan’s copy editing added clarity to my book Walking Bass for Jazz and Blues by eliminating jargon and unneeded words. She provided suggestions for addressing the theoretical and technical aspects of music in ways that would make the content more approachable to a wider audience. Susan completed the review quickly and efficiently, which allowed me to make the edits and submit to my publisher on time.
